Ruby Rose has urged young LGBT people to embrace their sexuality, saying: “You only have one life.”The Australian actress and model, 35, said she had been “tormented” by other children at school after coming out as gay aged 12. She also admitted she might not have come out at such a young age if she had realised how homophobic some people are, as she later did. Appearing on one of five different covers for Glamour UK’s Beauty of Pride issue, Rose said: “I came out when I was 12, which is quite young. She offered advice to young people contemplating coming out, saying: “I know that when you’re in it, and especially when you’re young and if you’re in a particular environment that’s a smaller town, or maybe it’s a religious background, that it’s hard. And I know it’s super cliche, but you only have one life and it’s a magnificent gift that’s been given to you.
